I found two great RSS readers in Firefox and Internet Exporer. I would not have known they were there but for doing what my father always called piddling around. I was looking at an RSS feed inside of Firefox. I always liked how useful Firefox was in viewing the content of a feed.

Google has announced despite there recent demise of the Google app Wave they would now let it be open-source and allow anyone to run the application on a server of their own.

JayCut is a an online video editor. You may ask, “Why would you use an online video editor?” The answer is for power. I have a relatively slow computer. Editing video does not require a powerful machine but rendering the video after editing requires an awful lot of computer (both CPU and RAM).

Windows Live Sync is a part of the Windows Live Essentials Beta. The old Live Sync would not sync to Skydrive, the new version will. There is one little problem. With a Skydrive account you get 25 GB of storage yet you can only sync 2GB. This seems silly to me. Is Microsoft afraid Skydrive [...]

The email from all of my account goes to Gmail so I have to go to different sites or open and email program. I go to Gmail and it’s all there. See Lifehacker. But that’s not the tip! Google does not check your POP account frequently so you may have your Gmail open but your [...]

I’m always saying use good passwords. Use upper and lower case letters and numbers. I do all of this but one has to have an algorithm to remember ones passwords. The problem is in order to use the password algorithm it has to be easy. Something you can do in your head. My algorithm is [...]
I known about and have used Evernote a little. Evernote is a web application that saves your text notes, photos, audio note and webpage clips in the cloud to use as reminders and help keep your life organized. I’ve got the phone application on my Nexus One. I’m going to use it more often.
